Amid speculation that the head of the British monarchy is having <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2024\/05\/25\/entertainment\/king-charles-and-william-are-having-lengthy-discussions-about-stripping-harry-meghan-of-royal-titles-but-this-is-why-they-wont\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u201clengthy discussions\u201d<\/a> to withdraw their honorifics with his heir-to-the-throne and eldest son, Prince William, a new report has claimed that stripping the Duke and Duchess of Sussex of their peerages could result in the 42-year-old being referred to by a far superior rank: Princess. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to a royal expert, Meghan would simply be referenced as \u2018Princess Henry\u2019 should King Charles renounce their epithets. Though the denomination sounds strange in theory given she\u2019s no longer a working member of the royal family, the reason for her being dubbed \u2018Princess Henry\u2019 is quite straightforward and stems from a traditional practice. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">L<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">egally, Meghan is already entitled to use \u2018Princess Henry\u2019 as an informal custom insists a princess must take the title alongside her husband&#8217;s name. As Meghan became a princess upon her <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/best-celebrity-wedding-dresses\/\">marriage to Prince Harry<\/a>, whose full name is Henry Charles Albert David, her title could\u2019ve been styled as \u2018Princess Henry\u2019 from the outset, despite that rank being quite uncommon.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_253307\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-253307\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-253307\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Prince-Harry-Meghan-Markle-Nigeria-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Prince-Harry-Meghan-Markle-Nigeria\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-253307\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, attend a charity polo game at the Ikoyi Polo Club in Lagos on May 12, 2024 as they visit Nigeria as part of celebrations of Invictus Games anniversary.

Given the rift (and <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/prince-harry-meghan-markle-removed-royal-website\/\">recent removal from the official royal website<\/a>) between the California-based couples and their estranged family, experts suggest that the manoeuvre will be unlikely, especially given King Charles\u2019 recent <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/king-charles-cancer\/\">health struggles<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI don\u2019t think anything will happen to the titles because, if they lose their titles, Harry is still a prince of the blood and Meghan instead of being the Duchess of Sussex, [would] be Princess Henry,\u201d a royal expert and biographer told tabloids. \u201cThat really would [confuse the Americans],\u201d they continued before adding, \u201cI think [it\u2019s] probably best just to leave it because it looks unkind, it looks unnecessary\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, in Montecito, Meghan and Prince Harry have reportedly considered a <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/meghan-markle-prince-harry-big-move-archie-lilibet\/\">\u201cbig move\u201d<\/a> of their own involving their two toddlers, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 2.
